Facts Of Life - Talking Heads (傳聲頭樂隊)

Written by：Baderou/Chris Frantz/David Byrne/Jerry Harrison/Tina Weymouth

Monkey see and monkey do

Makin' babies eatin' food

Smelly things pubic hair

Words of love in the air

Sparks fly shootin' out

Makin' sure that every thing is working

I can't turn you down

We are programmed happy little children

Matter over mind

We cannot resist so I won't fight it

Love is a machine

Love is a machine without a driver

Facts of life facts of life

Masterpiece biology

Smokey water air conditioned

Boys n' girls and automation

Chromosomes designer jeans

An' chimpanzees an' human beings

Machines of love machines of love

Machines of love machines of love

Strong in body strong in mind

A love machine with the facts of life

Facts of life facts of life

So much sex 'n' violence

Must be a bad design

We're stupid to be fightin'

Every night

The monsters we create

They welcome us aboard

The best in advertising

From coast to coast

The girls and boys combine

Like monkeys in the zoo

The clouds have silver linings

Looks pretty good

People fall in love like in fairy tales

I'm not sure I like what they can do

I'm afraid that God has no master plan

He only takes what he can use

Factory life

Ice cream pie

Factory life

Someday we'll live on Venus

Men will walk on Mars

But we will still be monkeys

Down deep inside

If chimpanzees are smart

Then we will close our eyes

And let our instincts guide us

Oh oh oh oh no
